I think there are 4 more winnable games (MN, ATL, AZ, and GB). Given that it's always been a rebuild project, I think we keep Poles, Flus, and Fields if we get 7 wins, especially if we look okay in the losses.

The team is on the way up, still playing hard, and I think 3 years is a more reasonable timeline.

Fields is not due to get paid. Maybe we go for the 5th year option (doubtful) or let him play out his contract (possible) or we trade him (probable). None of those options require us to pay him more next year. If Fields shows out the rest of this season, maybe we do the fifth year option, but I don't see any scenario other than getting to the Superbowl that makes us fork up a contract after this season.
